My Facebook account is acting strange, how can I fix it?
Bobby Asks:
Can you help? My FB is acting strange. I can’t “like” and comment on status’ and cannot share anything.
Also, anyone with a timeline (myself included) the page looks different, like it is offset to the left and pics are huge, taking up my whole screen. Yesterday i found that I was unable to use the rafflecopter in some contests that i normally enter. I tried everything, even system restore, now today is when the not being able to share a status adn the strange looking timeline pages started. Facebook is the only site that I am having issues with. Thanks!
Response:
A couple of things you can try doing here:
- You could have a virus that is toying around with how Facebook is displayed to do.
- You have a web browser addon that is changing the behaviour of Facebook. Try disabling addons
- Try pressing Control+0 (to reset the size of Facebook)
- Try pressing Control+F5 (to perform a hard refresh). Sometimes Facebook doesn’t load that well.
- Clear your cookies and cache (See How do I delete my web browsers cookies and private information?)
- Remove apps you no longer need (probably not a direct cause, but it’s still good to do (Account Settings –> Apps)
- Try a different computer or Web Browser. Try FF or Chrome.
- Let me know if any of these tips work, or email me some screenshots
I hope some of these methods work for you.

Hi, i had an issue with Facebook, my activity log said i was looking for someone every day and that isn’t true, i barely even use Facebook. This has brought me personal issues and i need to know whats been going on, I’ve asked the facebook team and haven’t received a response. Please, i need to know why this is happening to me.
I would sign out of all your Facebook activity, as it might appear someone else is using your account.
If it’s happening to all of us, it can’t be US! sounds like a Facebook problem. When will it be fixed?
